Dedicated to my 18-year-old true love——Eiji Zekita
When he was twenty years old, a reporter asked Zebei Eiji: Who is the person who has the greatest influence on you?
At that time, Eiji had just finished a difficult game, and sweat was flowing freely along his smooth forehead, changing direction at the corners of his raised mouth.
He said: "This, of course, is my father - Zebei Tetsuji."
The answer is firm and certain. Just like when he was fourteen or fifteen years old, he answered, "No one can influence me."
